Man conducts digital orchestra using Wii Remote and Balance Board

Paul Henry Smith has devoted himself to promoting and improving the digital performance of orchestral music. So how does he do this? Well, lots of ways, but to keep the idea relevant to your interests, he uses a Wii Remote and Balance Board.

As you can see in the above video, Smith leans left and right to raise and lower the volume of different sections of his Fauxharmonic Orchestra, and waves his Wii Remote like a conductor’s baton to control the tempo. I don’t know about you, but I would be interested in a Wii game based on that idea.
